MGRH865QDB13 Maytag Range - Instructions

Removed the drawer from under the stove then unscrewed the access panel in the back (two phillips head screws). Rather than take it off altogether I just swung it to one side.

The ignitor electrical connector required two hands to disconnect and it was a bit of a reach but came apart easily enough once I got hold of it.

Removed the racks and bottom from the oven. the bottom is held in by two pins in the back that you just slide toward the front then lift it out. I did not bother to remove the oven door, but some people might.

Then removed the two hex head screws holding the ignitor on and pulled the connector out of the hole leading to the bottom.

Installation is the reverse of removal The electrical connector was reluctant to back down the hole, but went with a little wiggling and pulling from underneath. Once you get it back down there the connector is keyed, so you can't get it wrong.

Piece of cake, really.

Total repair time: about 30 minutes, including the mandatory halfway beer break.

Removed the oven door an removed some screws. After that it was pretty much self explanatory from there. Real simple project !

A neighbor used to own his own appliance store, and he was nice enough to remove the old handle and put the new one on for me.

Was very difficult because door handle broke off on Holloween 2020. I looked into model number and ordered part same day. Money was taken out of my account almost immediately. Email said it would be sent out within 7-10 days. A while month went by. I emailed them twice asking about my order. They never got back to me.

So after 2 months, I posted a review on Facebook of my experience with this company. Within an hour of my review going up on Facebook, they contacted me and I gave them my order info. It was sent out the next day.

So the only reason they took care of it is because of the bad public review on Facebook that I posted.

They did refund me the shipping cost. But I will never use this company again. This never should have gotten as far as it did. The only reason they talked to me after they took my money is because of the bad public review.

Simple... unscrew the 2 screws and unplug the electrical connection to uninstall and just the opposite to install.

Ordered the broiler igniter that matched my model from part select and installed. Easy and part works as it should. Only took a few days to get here and saved me $40 by not purchasing at a local parts store as well. Will use part select if there are any future needs.

You had the part at a good price and super quick delivery.

Took the door off the hinges and placed it on the floor. Removed the trim from the oven door. Removed bracket holding broken oven handle on. Using the same bracket, replace the oven handle. Replaced the trim and put oven door back on hinges.

Remove the oven door by opening halfway and lifting door away from stove. Removed racks and bottom pan from oven area exposing the gas bar and vertical mount igniter. Next remove bottom storage door. With phillips screwdriver remove 2 screws securing rear cover plate in back of storage area, accessing the igniter connection, and unplug the plug. Next back in oven, remove 2 5/16 sheet metal screws securing igniter with a nut driver and remove igniter by getly pulling disconnected end thru to oven. Now reverse process, install new vertical mount igniter and push connection down thru to storage area, then reconnect wire connection and put cover plate back on.
At this piont I turned oven on and checked igniter, it glowed red right away and the oven lit right up. Put storage door, oven door, bottom oven panel, and racks back in and done. Took 15 minutes tops, and anyone can do this, super easy. My oven would sometimes take half hour to preheat to 350,if it even lit, now 5 minutes, and it lights every time. Save the cost of a repair man folks, this one can be done by any weekend warrior.
I would just like to note....if you are uncomfortable with disconnecting wire plugs and plugging them back in, just unplug the oven from the wall as well before changing out the part, just to be safe.

Thinking we had a difficult/expensive repair, when the oven stopped working this summer - we just took advantage of the weather and grilled out. Apple season and the desire for fresh baked apple pie motivated us to action. We ordered the part - found simply on the site - it arrived promptly. A screw driver took off the oven bottom, we replaced the igniter and within 15 minutes our oven was working again. Why did we wait so long?

Very Simple, I recommend pulling the old gasket in sections, and popping the new gasket metal holders in the holes as you go. You can't mess it up. For the ends, I tucked them in using a pair of needle nose pliers, but any small slender tool, such as a thin screwdriver, will work.

I removed the screws and unplugged the connectors and i inserted the new igniter which was glowwing much brighter than the old one which gave me an indication that it has the amount of temperature to open the gas valve.Idid a good job.

I removed the floor of the oven (one screw) and the heat dispersal shield (one wing nut). Then I detached the old igniter using a socket set. I had to remove the bottom drawer to unplug the ignitor and plug in the new one. Then I reassembled. Total piece of cake and I have no experience whatsoever.

Nothing to it - remove oven bottom, and burner cover, unscrew the 2 scews holding the igniter
(one of mine sheared off now only one is holding the new igniter in - it still works) unplug wire at the connector then reverse and the oven is as good as new. The best part is that I received my part in only 2 days.

I shut the gas off and removed the oven door pulled the oven out and removed the electrical access panel.
unpluged the igniter and removed the 2 screws holding the igniter and relpaced repluged.
right to self clean mode. Easy job no worrys
Be safe check your gas connection!!
